Long punch lists and projects with no fixed scope. Billed by the hour, so the total depends on how long it runs.
What the lower end buys
Straight walls and a simple profile in one bedroom: measured, cut, nailed into studs, with nail holes filled and the top seam caulked. Old trim comes off first and leaves with the debris. Paint-ready when we go, or painted for you if you add that.
What the higher end buys
Several rooms, a tall or layered profile, and corners that have drifted out of square in a settled house drive the quote up. Each of those corners gets cut, tested, shaved and tested again, and a wavy old floor means scribing the bottom edge to follow the boards.

Biggest price driver
Corner count runs this job. A plain rectangular room has four of them. A room with a bay, a closet return and a fireplace surround can have fourteen, and in a settled house not one of them is a clean forty-five, so every joint gets fitted by hand.
How to keep your baseboard & trim installation cost down
Order a simple one-piece profile instead of a built-up stack, and take it paint-ready so you can roll the finish coat yourself. Pull the room empty, and hold off on shoe molding if new flooring is coming later.
